intensity before pressing START, the intensity display will begin flashing, and you will
be unable to start the treatment until you set the intensity.
NOTE: SAVE DEFAULTS. If the treatment you have just set up is the most common
High Volt setup you use, you can save the treatment parameters as new defaults for your
own machine. After setting up the treatment, simply press and hold the START key for
two seconds. At the end of two seconds, you will hear a beep indicating the treatment
parameters have been saved. The next time you select this modality, these parameters are
selected automatically.
9. MODIFY settings.
While the High Volt treatment is in progress, you can modify the following treatment
parameters.
• Use the toggle keys to select a different contraction/rest cycle.
• Use the toggle keys to select a different ramp time.
• Use the Function-Hi Volt keys to change the polarity.
• Use the Time arrow keys to increase or decrease the treatment time.
• Use the Power-Intensity arrow keys to increase or decrease the intensity.
You can not change from High to Low (or the reverse) once a treatment has started.
10. Press STOP, if it is necessary to end the treatment before the treatment time has expired.
When the treatment time has elapsed, current to the patient is stopped and a tone sounds
notifying you of the treatment end. Treatments in progress may be stopped at any time
using one of the following methods.
STOP: Press this key to stop treatment at all channels. You may prefer to stop treatment
at one channel only (see explanation below).
REMOTE STOP: During “unattended therapy,” a patient stop button is provided to
allow the patient to stop treatment. The remote cord should be plugged into the machine
prior to starting the treatment. When the remote stop button is pressed, all output from
the device is stopped, time is set to zero, and a tone sounds briefly.
STOP ONE TREATMENT ONLY: If you have more than one treatment in progress,
you can stop one treatment by either of the following methods. First, press the channel
toggle key to select the channel to be stopped (that channel’s light is green when
selected).
FUNCTION-STOP. Press and hold the FUNCTION key and press STOP.
REDUCE THE TREATMENT TIME TO ZERO. Press the Time down arrow
until the Time display reaches zero. The device beeps when the time reaches
zero.
The output at the selected channel is stopped, and the device then displays the parameters
for the next treatment that remains in progress (if any).
